Step 2
------
D-I tries to detect the Ethernet hardware.
My EtherNAT with an SMC91x network chip had been detected without user
input, but needs to get a MAC address been set manually. Sadly it seems
to have a hardware issue, as i couldn't get it running in FreeMiNT as
usual, too.
Carsten to the rescue, he brought a working solution, a NetUSBee.
After you connect Ethernet to _working hardware_ and DHCP works fine,
you create the machine name, root password and a user, and then proceed
to partitioning of the harddrive.
To get the NetUSBee working it was nessecary to chose the "ne - NE2000
ISA pnp Ethernet" driver from a list of network drivers that was presented
by D-I.
Partman detects the partitions created by HDDriver and i chosed /dev/sda2
as my / device and ext4 as the file system. /dev/sda4 is my swap partition.
I wanted to mount the TOS C: (/devsda1) under /tos to be able to copy
installed kernel and initrd from /boot onto my TOS system later on, but
for some reason partman failed to do so. I changed /dev/sda1 back to "do
not use"
and finished the partitioning. Now the base system is installed from the
netinst CDROM and then i had to choose the mirror server. I went with the
default for germany and apt started fetching files.
Next up: Step 3 - choose and install software
